The Simpson SDS Setting Tool for DIA50S is a dedicated power-setting tool from Simpson, engineered specifically for installing Drop-In anchors of the DIA50S model. With its 1/2" SDS-plus shank, this tool integrates seamlessly with standard SDS-plus rotary hammer drills, allowing crews to drive and set Drop-In anchors quickly and consistently on the job site.

Key Features

• SDS-plus shank design - pairs with any SDS-plus rotary hammer drill for tool-free bit changes and a secure, rattle-free connection during heavy use
• Purpose-built for the DIA50S Drop-In anchor - engineered to match the exact dimensions of this anchor model, helping ensure correct setting depth and full load capacity every time
• Carbon steel construction - delivers the toughness needed to withstand repeated impact cycles in demanding construction environments
• Dedicated setting geometry - promotes fast, economical anchor installation by eliminating guesswork and reducing the risk of improper setting that can compromise holding strength

Why This Product

• Precision compatibility protects anchor performance - because this tool is matched specifically to the DIA50S, it helps prevent the oversized-hole issues and under-setting that reduce load capacity when generic tools are used
• Faster installs with familiar drill technology - the SDS-plus shank means no adapters or specialty equipment are needed, so workers can use the rotary hammer drills already on site
• Consistent results across a job - a purpose-designed setting tool takes variability out of the process, giving inspectors and contractors confidence that each anchor is set to its intended specification
• Durable enough for high-volume use - carbon steel construction holds up through repeated anchor installations without the wear concerns associated with lighter-duty alternatives
